News Flash: Ty Lue Sucks

by Brett Edwards

After reading this blurb on ESPN.com today, I was reminded of how much Tyronn Lue, current Hawk guard and former Laker guard, actually sucks. He was a fan favorite during the recent championship run here in L.A., your typical bullshit mascot player that the fans embraced, if for no other reason than it was fun (for them) to yell "LUUUUUUE" every time he was in the game. It got so annoying that I started yelling "LUUUE" every time he bricked a shot or turned the ball over, but I had to stop because I would lose my voice within five minutes of him being in the game.

The most enduring memory from Lue on the Lakers was having A.I. hit a game clinching 3-pointer in the NBA finals, then step over Lue as he was trying to play defense while lying on the floor. Laker fans loved this guy, go figure. Anyway, 0-7 from the field on the worst team in the league last night. Ty Lue, you suck.
